Hey r/GenAiApps,

I’m Tarun, solo indie dev behind LoopMaker.

It’s a native macOS app that generates music from text prompts entirely on your own Mac. No cloud, no subscription, no credits, no queue.

You can make lo-fi beats, cinematic background music, ambient loops, electronic tracks, hip-hop, jazz, instrumentals, or vocals with lyrics. The app runs locally and exports normal audio files you can use in video editors, DAWs, games, podcasts, etc.

Why I built it:

Most AI music tools are subscription + credit based. That works for some people, but if you generate a lot, it starts feeling like every idea has a meter attached to it. I wanted something closer to buying a tool once and using it as much as you want.

What LoopMaker does:

• Generates music from text prompts
• Runs offline on Mac
• No accounts, no cloud queue, no monthly limits
• Unlimited generations
• WAV / M4A export
• Six presets: lo-fi, cinematic, ambient, electronic, hip-hop, jazz
• Vocals + lyrics support
• Full commercial use for generated tracks

Normal price is $49 one-time, but I’m giving away 10 lifetime licenses here.

How to enter:

Just upvote and comment, what you’d use LoopMaker for YouTube background music, game loops, podcast intro, short films, beats, anything.

I’ll pick 10 people and DM the license codes.

Happy to answer questions about the app, local AI music generation, or building native AI apps for Mac.

Looks like they got rid of all the extra icons in the file menus too. Nice.

There seems to be a trend of Apple listening to people this release…

Spotted this in the latest macOS 27 preview update notes:

“Ultrawide display support. Now you can get higher resolutions on ultrawide displays, such as 5K at 120Hz. And your display arrangements stay exactly as you left them, for a seamless experience every time you plug in.”

So excited for that!

I cannot update my MacOS, no matter what. I get this error every time for the past couple of months, no matter the MacOS version. It works and updates fine once in a blue moon at like 0.001% chance. (fails 99% of the time with "Code 2," then randomly works without changes to network or hardware.) Its driving me crazy. Mac Studio M1 Max.

Main error:

• MSU_ERR_PERSONALIZATION_FAILURE (1259) on Apple Silicon

Primary errors:

• could not obtain device identity information through SFR installer
• MobileSoftwareUpdateErrorDomain Code=1259 ("failed to copy firmware identity")

So essentially to me it looks like Apple servers cannot verify my Mac/Chip and will not open the gates to update, but sometimes the Gods will smile upon me and allow to update. Its a lottery ticket.

What I tried:

• Force mounted the system recovery volume and made sure BuildManifest.plist is present/readable.
• Connectivity to gs.apple.com and swscan.apple.com works just fine.
• Ran updates with owner authentication and via a fresh admin user with a confirmed secure token.
• Triedboth softwareupdate CLI and startosinstall from the full offline installer app.
• Tried USB install via recovery.
• Corrected APFS volume roles and forcefully synced preboot environments.
• Fully factory reset the Mac & left the Mac unplugged overnight, then tried to update. Same error.
• Tried safe mode, draining power, signing out of iCloud, on/off VPNs, and lots of other bullshit I read about on the internet.
• Changed boot security to Full in Recovery.
• Performed a full wipe DFU restore.
• Called Apple Support, they said they know about this issue, ran remote diagnostics checks together from recovery, they even took remote control of my Mac. Apparently everything looked fine but still failed to resolve the issue. They "forwarded to higher senior L3 technicians". Overall the support was incompetent regarding resolving this problem.

As a tech-literate person, I am lowkey agitated at this point. Imagine requiring endless bullshit auth layers and iCloud verifications to update a fucking operating system on a legitimate Mac that's registered to your Apple account. This is absolutely hideous.
